Fender Studio Quantum LT 16 Overview The Fender Quantum LT 16 is a 16×8 USB-C audio interface that combines PreSonus conversion with two Fender-designed Hi-Z instrument inputs. With eight XLR-1/4″ combined mic/line inputs on the front, DC-coupled outputs, and eight balanced line inputs, this interface is capable of handling large and small projects. The eight-line inputs are adjustable for 4 dBu or -10 dBV operation, accommodating mic preamps, synthesizers, mixers, and other devices. The Quantum LT 16 has 14 line inputs in total, including jacks on the front panel. The eight MAX-HD mic preamps offer up to 75 decibels of transparent gain. The interface’s main output is a balanced 1/4″ TRS stereo pair, with six DC-coupled 1/4″ outputs for combining modular and analog synthesizers. The 5-pin DIN MIDI I/O keeps you in sync with classic MIDI gear. AD/DA up to 24-bit/192 kHz guarantees high-quality audio. With capabilities like loopback for podcasting, standalone mixer mode for DAW-free mixing, and mic pre mode for utilizing the interface as a pure eight-mic preamp, the Quantum LT 16 can be tailored to any purpose, whether personal or professional. The Quantum LT 16 contains a free permanent license for Fender Studio Pro.
